Scott Pilgrim vs. the World to Live on in Monthly L.A. Residency

Edgar Wright's geek fantasy epic Scott Pilgrim vs. the World may have biffed with mainstream audiences last year, but it's earned a dedicated fan following since, granting it bona fide cult status. That cult will have the opportunity to worship at the altar of Scott Pilgrim starting next month, when L.A.'s New Beverly Cinema begins screening it in a monthly midnight residency.

Actually, if you look at the performance of "Scott Pilgrim" it's extremely similar to a movie like "Serenity" and just a bit under what "Snakes on a Plane" made. (That doesn't include inflation or the smaller budgets of the earlier movies.) I call it the online/fanboy wall. So far, the most successful movie based on an otherwise little known fannish, online phenom is "Kick-Ass" which made about 46 million domestically. I think it's safe to say, though, that nearly all of these have a decent to outstanding life on home video, though,
